[Systems] [IAEP] [Sugar-devel] This list in need YOUR help

[Sebastian Silva]

Hi Martin and Laura,

You are very kind in volunteering to co-admin IAEP.
There are no current guidelines for this list that I know of.
If you think some are needed (or not) that would be fine.

Please excuse my lack of speed in replying. My only excuse is that there
have been zero messages held in moderation in IAEP since my last public
reply.

Moderation requests are handled here:
http://lists.sugarlabs.org/admindb/iaep
Other administration: http://lists.sugarlabs.org/admin/iaep

I will remain co-admin to help out if that is fine with you. I will add
you to the administrators so that you will get notifications when
something requires our action.

Martin, Please tell me how shall I send you the admin password?

I sure hope to see IAEP flourish again!

Regards,
Sebastian
